Can't Lie

Once I had a brave new world
And everything free of sin
Well, your lips met mine and off we went
Hand me that apple down off the limb

Ain't pride or greed or even lust
It's crippling lonely fear
Are you happy with your social face
Or do you see tears when you stare in the mirror

No can't lie to me, no can't hide from me
I'm the only one, we're the only one
Hemingway thinks he can get loose
You can't close your eyes and reach freedom

The nights and days become a blur
It's the same shit over again
Is your head in the clouds or are you just a little thick
The truth, when will you comprehend

No can't lie to me, no can't hide from me
I'm the only one, we're the only one
Everyone says they know the truth
It's obvious to five believers

Ain't it funny when the days are all crossed off
Gotta laugh when you don't have time
Getting old ain't for pussies, the preacher said
So dust off that bottle of old cheap wine
And throw back that bottle of old cheap wine
Yeah, chug on that bottle of old cheap wine
